Anyone have a cure for a Limp rearview mirror?
When its hot outside, my rearview mirror tends to kinda flop down. only until the AC has cooled the interior down some does it actually hold its position. any ideas on how to stiffen it? (insert viagra jokes below)

Fairly easy fix. Following instructions are based on remembering a fix I did...
...over a year ago.
First your need to carefully remove the plastic rim surrounding the mirror with a screw driver (it is one of those click fits). Then you can remove the mirror itself, or let it dangle from the wire I think it is connected to). After it is removed you can tighten one or two screws that press a clip against a ball joint. Put the mirror back in and click the mirror frame back in. Done. Good luck.
